What the record says.
ADF Foods delivered a record Q3 FY26 with consolidated revenue of ₹191 crore (+29.5% YoY) and EBITDA of ₹37.1 crore (+40.6% YoY), driven by strong traction from new listings and deeper brand penetration in the US despite tariff headwinds. Standalone revenue grew 13.3% to ₹137.2 crore, with EBITDA margin expanding 400bps to 25.1% on improved product mix and cost optimization. The Truly Indian brand exceeded expectations, now in 2,000+ US stores. Management guided for FY27 revenue of ₹925-1,000 crore, supported by the Surat greenfield plant (Phase 1 operational by Q4 FY26) and new product launches. Risks include sustained investment drag from Truly Indian (breakeven in 3 years) and potential margin volatility from product mix shifts.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management guided for consolidated revenue between ₹925 crore and ₹1,000 crore in FY27, driven by capacity expansion and new product launches.
- Phase 1 of the Surat greenfield plant will be fully operational by Q4 FY26, adding new frozen product lines.
- Management expects standalone EBITDA margins to remain in the 20% range going forward, supported by product mix.
- The Truly Indian brand is expected to breakeven at the subsidiary level in about 3 years, with continued investment.
Risks flagged
- The Truly Indian brand remains in investment phase for ~3 years, pressuring consolidated margins.
- Consolidated margins can fluctuate due to product mix shifts, as seen in Q3 vs Q2.
- Domestic market (Soul brand) is still negligible at ₹0.5 crore per month, with no clear turnaround plan yet.
- While tariffs have reduced, the benefit may not fully accrue to ADF as distributors control end pricing.
Key quotes
- We delivered a strong performance in Q3 FI26 with consolidated revenues reaching an all-time high of 191 crores, representing a robust 29.5% year-on-year growth.
- Our flagship brand Ashoka continues to drive growth from core and emerging markets... our mainstream brand Truly Indian has exceeded expectations with a marked acceleration in its growth trajectory.
- We feel fairly confident of being able to achieve anywhere between 925 to 1,000 crores [in FY27].
